i hate it when a developer puts out a good but incomplete game promising DLC and then when the next e3 comes along they fui hate it when a developer puts out a good but incomplete game promising DLC and then when the next e3 comes along they  announce a brand new sequel. WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED TO L4D1! now in just a year we’re going to have to shell out another 60 bucks for basically the same game ! Valve was supposed to be the developers-in-shining-armor. they are just milking it now.

i can’t stand it when you go to the beach and there is NEVER and parking available! i arrived at the beach today and was circling the roads for a parking spot for 15 mins! i had people waiting to meet me, and they left assuming i wasn’t coming! the worst part is, during the course of that time, i though i found a couple spots BUT the people who were getting in their cars or walking to their car were just going to get a towel, or beach chair, etc. hey buddy? how about you tell me that before i start following you to your car! be considerate people!

I  registered with the  DO NOT CALL LIST when it  first became available. Why is it that I am bothered several time a week by  ”urgent calls regarding my credit card” from out of state phone #’s such as the one that just called my home # 850-583-1190 from Crestview, Florida? After the recording you are asked to press #1 and a representative comes on the phone. I ask what is the problem with my credit card and why are they calling me when I am on a DO NOT CALL LIST, then they slam the phone in my face. This is not right. These scammers are in violation of the law.

I purchased a Hp 7310Xi all in one printer for $400 and a 2 year warranty for $60. Anyway my printer broke once before, and they sent me a refurbished one after i paid $460 dollars, I was pissed but happy I had a working printer again. A year later I have another problem with my printer first they cant find my warranty, I eventually found out they put it with a C when my last name starts with a G, this took an hour. I spend another 2 hours on technical support, the guy whos name is actually “binker (who I could barley understand), tells me my printer is broken and will get back to me tomorrow. I was like WTF??? Tomorrow?? what kid of business is this??? Then I go what about my warranty and hes like you dont have one.. I get so mad at this guy, and hang up. BEWARE BEFORE YOU BUY AN HP PRODUCT!!! THEY SCAMMED ME OUT OF MY WARRANTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I ordered a pair of shoes from Shoes.com, and it  was hell getting them.  It took a ridiculously long time to received them (3 weeks). In this three week period I made several attempts to contact them and I received no answer. When I finally got the shoes I opened up the box and they were the wrong ones. All i could say is WTF??? I am still trying to return these shoes, I mailed them back and I have not received my money back yet, I am out $150 and extremely frustrated. NO ONE SHOULD EVER BUY SHOES FROM THEM!!!!!

When you do something wrong, you should take the blame for it. When you don’t do something wrong, you shouldn’t! That simple!

One thing that has been really ticking me off recently is “how come when you’re part of a wireless cellular device company, you can’t  change to another phone that is part of  THE  SAME COMPANY, without paying a fee. I mean you pay for everything else,  and I won’t mind paying to upgrade to a new cooler phone, I won’t being doing anything different, and if anything I will probably be spending more money on buying new games and ringtones, but thats fine. For Verizon you have to pay some couple hundred dollar fee, unless your phone contract is up “WTF?.

Verizon: Hello, how can I help you?

Me: Ummm…. I want to purchase a new phone

Verzion: Surely, but hold on one second and let me fee you for not waiting to buy a new phone eight months  from now.

Me: Sure, take your time. Hey, and while your at it you should fee me for coming into the store, or maybe using up your precious time.

Seriously people this is out-of-wack. I want to switch to a cooler phone, and I want to switch now God Dammit.

I went to purchase a sony T 700 digital camera. I look online for the camera, i find this website 86th street, and i decide to purchase it because they are soo cheap.  So anyway i go to buy the camera for $270 when on sony its selling for $400. Later on that day i see the webstie changed the price of the camera 4 more times during the day. I get an email to call, and the guys like its on backorder and it will take 2 weeks to receive, and he wants to sell me over price accessories. I finally figures out that thy dont sell the camera if you dont buy their over price accessories. I decided to play a trick next day i called buying the exact same camera, with a memory card and battery which are way over price, and the guy is like you can have it on monday, which is 3 days away, i was like hey jerk off you told me it was backorderd, he says ok ill send you jsut the camera, and i said your a jerkoff and i am calling the BBB on him, and he didnt seem to care. DONT EVER BUY ANYTHING FROM THEM, ITS A SCAM, IM WARNING YOU. They deserve nothing, biggest scam in the world, they should be shut down

Well,  it’s finally up!! I came up with the idea for  “ToVent”  a year ago,  and I purchased the domain name on April 29, 2008. I wanted to create a central site where people could complain.  One  year later,  look where we are!  ToVent.com was designed  to be the main complaint blog where people can complain ,  get  their frustrations out,  and be heard.  And it gets even better…other’s  can comment,  comiserate, and give advice.

Let’s face it, we all get mad or have something to get off our chest, and all we want is for someone to listen.  Feel free to rate the posts, vote for your favorite.  Each week, the writer of the vent  with the highest rating will receive a ToVent.com t-shirt.

Ok, start venting…

Peace,

Nick

P.S.   Since prom is about 2 weeks away, I thought I would vent…

Seriously, I’m trying to find a prom date because prom is about two weeks away. It’s probably the hardest thing to do if you don’t have a girlfriend. I’m trying to ask this girl and then her so called “friend, bf, who knows, weirdo”, is like leave her alone. I’m like man if she doesn’t want to announce that you’re her boyfriend, I guess she really doesn’t like you. Well, I’m going to have to look for a new one, I guess ill do what I did last year and get a prom date 6 days before prom. Well, I guess we’ll see what happens. A great quote to sum this up “It is wise to take your time than to pursue something that is half-cooked. Sometimes, waiting can mean the smartest decision you will ever make.” If this is true, I guess a better girl is waiting out there for me.
